Where can I read and request manga?

My mission with my tumblr is to help you find official resources to consume manga; doing it these ways will help the mangaka who work to bring you content and it encourages English publishers to bring over more series.

Check under the cut for legal websites, apps and retailers with detailed information. At the bottom you'll find surveys and ways to contact publishers with requests.

You can use regular retailers to buy digital and print: Amazon/Kindle, Kobo, Barnes and Noble, Bookwalker, Google Play, Apple Books, Nook

There are apps available for buying volumes, chapters, using ticket systems to access free content, or with subscriptions.

Mangamo - $4.99/mo for 200+ titles; titles available for purchases with in-app library

Viz manga - $1.99/mo; titles available to purchase with in-app library (carries titles from Viz, but not their SJ series)

Shonen Jump - $2.99/mo; titles available to purchase with in-app library (carries specifically SJ titles, which are often popular shounen)

Comikey - uses a key system; ability to read for free with ads and patience

Kmanga - app maintained by Kodansha; chapters are often available to read for free through a ticket system and able to purchase

Kodansha - a website where you can create a free reading account. They offer 3 free chapters on all their manga, occasionally feature several free volumes, and run sales on their content somewhat regularly.

MangaPlus - $1.99 or $4.99 for a subscription; will allow a free read of their simulpub series.

MangaPlaza - 7 day free trial; $6.99/mo; [info incoming, seems to have more mature licenses]

INKR - 3 ways to access content; free, coins & 'Extra Membership'. Extra can cost $4.99/mo or $44.99/year and gives you access to content, extra savings and "free ink" that can be traded for their coin system. (Used to be Manga Rock and that was a fun read from them)

MangaPlanet - $1.99/week -> $47.99/year depending on which tier you pay for.

MangaUP - 1 month free trial, $4.99/mo; you can browse their 'vault' to see if things you like are included

Renta! - point system; 1 point = 1 cent; regular bonus points for higher purchases

Mangacat - [currently researching; seems to allow people to independently upload and set prices for viewing; people can also do translations for work. Acts as somewhat of a 'by fans for fans' site. Coin system where 20 coins=1$ with no discounts for larger purchases]

Irodori Comics - hosts 18+, specializes in doujinshi, more info incoming

ComiXology - $4.99/month; a service through amazon that allows you access to comics, manga and graphic novels. Specifically boasts {2400} manga titles.

Animeplanet - has a library of completely free comics and anime through partnerships; seems to host less manga styled comics but free is free.

Manta, Comicle, Webtoon, Tappytoon, Tapas, WebComics, Bilibili will be looked into but they host mostly webtoon style comics

Seven seas has a (mostly) monthly survey that is linked on their homepage at all times. {They will pull from any publisher, including digital only simulpubs}

If you have a bookwalker account, I found a Google doc that you fill out requests and they send them to publishers.

To send suggestions to Viz, use this survey that is listed through their Contact Us page (you select the "Series Suggestion" and will be redirected) {they mostly pull from shogakukan and shueisha titles}

To send suggestions to Kodansha, go to their contact us page and there are 2 useful drop downs; suggest reprints and suggest series, suggest series is also useful to request a print of anything they've licensed digital only. {They pull almost exclusively from Kodansha Japan}

TokyoPop has a discord server where they look at your suggestions in the channel #licensesuggestion

If you are able, in any way, support official English releases. It shows it is a lucrative business decision to continue the manga. Nothing is worse than starting something and being unable to finish it because it stopped getting translated and published.

I will update this post as needed, enjoy your manga! ♡

Three Takarazuka OG in one drama!  I am intrigued.  (and some bloke from Z Generation) As you can see, it’s cute af.

Synopsis 

When you go to a mixer and find a bunch of girls looking hot in drag on the other side.

Based on the manga 「合コンに行ったら女がいなかった話」(There’s no Women in this Mixer! D:)

College kid Tokiwa finds himself invited by classmate Suou (Kai) to a 3 on 3 mixer party.  But who would have thought that lying in wait at the izakaya are 3 sparkling ikemen ladies!  And thus in this mixer of 6 begins a beautiful human relationship of...love? friendship? or...???

Full-Body and height chart of Kagamine Family, as well as showcasing their new looks. Some changes here and there for Len and Rin, mainly the design of their suits and how they look, and a little tweak for their children's outfits and looks, but overall, their designs remain the same.

[YAOI] Jun’s Faves: Got You In My Sights

Art&Story: Sakae Mizuki Publisher: ShuCream Official Translation on Renta! Chapters: One-shot (33 pages)

----------

My review below (each rating out of 5): Art: 🥵🥵🥵 Plot: 😏😏😏😏 Character Development: 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

I’m unsure if I’ll regret this decision to post about Got You In My Sights as my first entry in my “Yaoi Favorites”, but I've yet to compile my thoughts about Eiji Nagisa’s Kabukicho Bad Trip, so I’ll save that post for a later time.

I wanted to write about this one-shot because it’s one of the better yaoi one-shots I’ve read in a while. To preface, the tags on Renta for this one are: college, dark, oneshot. There are a few other “dark”-categorized yaoi on Renta but sometimes the yaoi under that category is a toss-up whether you’re gonna get a thriller or just one with ... uh, slavery. Anyway. I am a fan of the former. I like thrillers. In Got You In My Sights, Chiaki Ikoma is an anti-social otaku whose fixation with 2D girls suddenly switches focus to his classmate Kazuya Minami, when the former catches the latter having sex with another man. Thus begins Chiaki’s risky voyeurism; the tension of peeping captured perfectly in the artwork. The surprise ending was a treat, and while some readers may have wanted more, I thought the ending was perfect for this story. At just 33 pages (and I believe $2USD?), if you’re looking for an interesting yaoi one-shot, this one’s worth setting your sights on.

Sona notes! Specifically on wings, because a couple of them can actually make them happen.
